We couldn't have thought of a better way to kick off a night of so much EXCITEMENT!

While our beloved Spice Girlsrode back into our lives via taxi cab last night to reunite for one helluva performance during the 2012 Summer Olympic Closing Ceremony, it was the far more RECENT British boy band One Direction that took the stage first!

Ch-ch-check out the boy band's Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne, Harry Styles, and Louis Tomlinson arriving on the flatbed of a truck to make teenage Olympian girls - and all the spectators at home - swoon with their smash single, What Makes You Beautiful (above)!

AH-mazing!

With such an incredible night of music, they guys must have been THRILLED to be a part of it all!

Where are your IM5 toys, Perez? They don't seem to be invited to perform much. In fact, there's just not much happening on that front, but is anyone surprised? They're awful, and they can't dance to save their lives. It must burn you up to see the One Direction and The Wanted gaining ground, while your little boys are stalled. So you have to hate OD and TW even as you stroke yourself while watching them. That would be hilarious if your perving over heteros weren't so disgusting.

One Direction can actually sing and I'm not saying that just because they're hot because we all know they are, but they can actually sing. People bought their albums NOT TO LISTEN TO THEIR DAMN FACES. WE BOUGHT THEM TO LISTEN TO THEIR VOICE. They have a different style of music and people compare them to the Beadles because they are 5 british guys who sing and became very famous. One Direction is No.1 boyband right now, I don't know if it's just for the BillBoard Charts or for anything else but you can tell that they have talent, if not then you can go suck their dicks because they are famous now and will forever hold the throne.

Shane Redway -- a Canadian rapper and close friend of Drake's -- was killed early Saturday morning in a car crash. He was just 26 years old.

Redway and two others were killed when their car lost control, struck a guardrail and burst into flames. The crash occurred around 4am outside Pearson International Airport in Toronto. It's unclear who was behind the wheel. Police are investigating the crash.

Drake took to Instagram to remember Redway, posting two different tributes.
